Happy Birthday to Turing Laureate Martin Hellman! Martin Hellman received the #ACMTuringAward in 2015 for inventing and promulgating both asymmetric public-key #cryptography, including its application to digital signatures, and a practical cryptographic key-exchange method.
In this video, Martin Hellman discusses his Ph.D. thesis work, “Learning with Finite Memory.” He explains using a trick coin as an example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=umVSICLdrhM&t=2s
Happy Birthday to #ACMTuringAward recipient Barbara Liskov! Liskov received the award in 2008 for contributions to practical and theoretical foundations of programming language and system design, especially related to data abstraction, fault tolerance, and distributed computing.
Liskov made history as the second woman ever to receive the ACM A.M. Turing Award, honored for her foundational contributions to programming languages and system design. https://amturing.acm.org/award_winners/liskov_1108679.cfm
